MusicRow is proud to announce the release of its MusicRow Awards issue, featuring BMI’s Jody Williams and the Writer/Publisher Team on the cover.

The June/July issue includes interviews with 2016 MusicRow Award winners Dave Cobb (Producer of the Year), Lori McKenna (Song of the Year, “Humble and Kind”), Maren Morris (Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year) and Old Dominion (Breakthough Artist of the Year).

In addition, the issue recognizes the Top 10 Album All-Star Musicians.

Other features include a candid look at the close-knit partnership of a songwriter and financial planner in a conversation with Brett Beavers (Big Deal Music/BMG) and David Adams (David Adams Wealth Group). Music Health Alliance is profiled as a healthcare resource for the music industry, while Jill Block discusses the benefit she and her late husband, Billy Block, received from the organization.

Additionally, the appeal of vinyl music is highlighted from commentary from industry players while legendary country artist Kenny Rogers joins MusicRow Publisher/Owner Sherod Robertson for a candid conversation about his farewell tour, his musical heroes, and his legacy.

Though the music industry might be changing, one constant that has remained is BMI’s unfailing devotion to songwriters. The building, a staple on Music Row, is often frequented by songwriters of all levels, from aspiring teenagers with parents in tow, to chart-toppers gracing the building in celebration of their latest No. 1 hit.
